Sigh.
This shitty app has gone full-screen, deliberately hiding the clock and battery level to force engagement like casinos do.
I'm out. Ping me if they ever put them back.
Oh snapppp!
Rev. Dr. Jamal Bryant at the memorial service for Rev. Jesse Jackson:
"The service wouldn't have been this long if were able to go to the Capitol, but the Capitol is now only reserved for pedophiles and podcasters."

Spanish PM Pedro Sanchez reiterated Spain's opposition to the war in Iran, condemning the war for causing suffering among civilians while “lining the pockets” of a select few and for other leaders “to use the smoke screen of war to conceal their failures” – an apparent jab at Trump.
I think the biggest damage to the art community was the obsolescence of gallery sites (y!, deviantart, etc) and the rise of scroll-by social media, like twitter and even tumblr. Art is not ''content'', you shouldnt need to post art every day (or every month!) to be relevant. This mindset sucks.
What do you call bacteria only found in freshwater springs?

I was drinking hot chocolate when I read this and was still laughing about it when I loaded my dressing gown into the washing machine for an emergency chocolate-related launder.
I don't know how to explain this but Casablanca is a movie for adults.
There are lots of movies built on an element of fantasy about being young or brave or defying the odds.
Casablanca is not that. Everyone in that movie has back pain and they have all just accepted it.
Local man is rude in stranger's replies. Gets defensive when it called out for it. News at 11.
Dammit people, add alt text to your images! So many times I see awesome art or cool comics, but can't repost it, because it's not accessible.
This day in history. 1921. Sunbury PA police chief Donnie Smith issued an edict requiring women and girls to wear skirts at least four inches below the knees. Told he couldn't issue edicts and questioned about his interest in girls' skirts he launched a speakeasy raid on neighbouring Snydertown.
Wash Jedon?
Also tired, and thought you were talking about the new Firefly show.
I am tired and just said “Wil Wheaton as Wesley Snipes”. That’s not right, but I would watch it.
Watched Hamnet. Beautiful directed and acted, nice use of symbolism. Really not my sort of thing.

Photo of Andrea LaFlamme wearing a shirt with the Desmond Tutu quote, "If you are neutral in situations of injustice, you have chosen the side of the oppressor."
Hi everyone! My name is Andrea LaFlamme and I'm running to unseat Susan Collins in the US Senate. I'm a feminist public health professor and the ONLY candidate in this race who has worked in education, municipal health, and as an elected union leader. (1/2)

#WorldPangolinday has passed us by but here are some wee Danglin’ Pangolins. A parachuting pangolin and its ant lunch on a tinier parachute saying EEP! There is a rounder of blue sky with a couple of clouds behind them and the parachute has orange and white stripes
Danglin’ Pangolins…
Because - why not? Late for #worldpangolinday but here we all are

The first superman comic was published in 1938. Sigmund Freud died in 1939. That means there was a real possibility that Freud wacked off to a picture of Lois Lane.
Once it's set concrete is incredibly stable — no pollution there.
As long as your candidate is wearing leather shoes, cotton socks, wool suit etc, you've given the ecosystem a yummy treat!
I made an outdoor dog bowl by setting the glass window from an old washing machine door in a block of concrete.
It's about half the size required for your experiment, and is impossible for one person to lift.
Your candidate would be forever mistaken for emulating an ostrich. Or ostriching an emu.
It'd have to be a very long straw to reach the surface of the river though.
Given the choice between the irradiated hellscape of post-nuclear Sheffield and another Zuckerberg social media platform, I can't be entirely certain I wouldn't choose gnawing on a dead rat in the remains of Atkinson's department store.
My GOD Threads is awful.
I was going to add a whole list of reasons, but I can’t improve on that
Sounds like a waste of a good straw.
I keep reinstalling Threads because Instagram shows me a truncated post and I think “What does it say? What is this??” and the answer is always Something Stupid From A Dickhead

That article is 9 months old:
I remember when ‘Brexit Means Brexit’ became a way for silly people to insist that they supported something they could neither justify nor explain. Obviously the context is very different, but something similar is already happening with the ‘war’ in Iran. And it’s mostly the same people doing it.
I'd driven stick for 35 years until I bought an electric van two years ago. Held on to my 2002 VW Beetle (5-speed, 8 valve) for a month before putting it up for sale 🙂
Maybe once every three months, taking a tight turn, I momentarily think "I'll need to do a 4th to 2nd" 🤣
Old VW's still truckin' …
